Twin Lakes is in Graniteville, South Carolina. The field elevation is 540 ft MSL. No runways are listed in the current facts, so check the current FAA Chart Supplement before you plan a landing here. The airport is not towered. CTAF is 122.9. No ILS approaches are published.
Pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern only if the current Chart Supplement or local guidance supports that for your aircraft and operation. The published remarks matter here. The rotating beacon is tied to CTAF. It is out of service indefinitely. Non-standard solar medium intensity runway lights are also activated by CTAF. There is an approach note for runway 06 that calls for a 20:1 clearance slope to the displaced threshold. That is worth checking before you arrive.
No on-field FBOs are listed. Fuel for transient aircraft is available by prior arrangement by calling 803-480-9569. Parking for transient aircraft is also by prior arrangement at the same number. Clearance delivery is handled through Augusta Approach at 706-771-1777. When Augusta Approach is closed, use Atlanta ARTCC at 770-210-7692. The airport is closed to aircraft with a maximum gross weight of 12,500 pounds and above. For a first visit, verify runway status, lighting and any local arrival notes with the airport operator before you go.
